Tracker Partnership To Focus on West Coast Industry

API and Kadan Consultants have announced their partnership for API’s Radian Laser Tracker series. The distribution agreement will and expand coverage to underserved west coast industries.

As the aerospace and space exploration industries have grown, manufacturing on the west coast, particularly in Los Angeles, has exploded. Yet, the ever-increasing demand for precision engineering products and services has not been met with enough local options.

API and Kadan offer a combined five decades of dedicated experience in portable laser tracker metrology. Their service technicians have expertise in industries from Aerospace and Defense to Shipbuilding and are knowledgeable in every step of the process from running laser trackers and machines to programming, setup and operations. This partnership unites API’s state-of-the-art Radian Tracker line and Kadan’s history of solution-based metrology services to bring hands-on customer service to these underserved industries.

After nearly two decades of using Faro and Leica trackers, Kadan is making the switch to API.

“Other metrology companies have become so conglomerated, they’re trying to offer everything under the sun; whereas API is a focused company,” said Eric Nemitz, Director of North American Sales for API. “That’s where Kadan fits right in with us. They’re very dedicated, understand solution-based sales, and have a very long history of positive customer service.”

Kadan has already purchased and integrated API’s Radian Laser Trackers for service and engineering work.

Kadan Consultants Inc. is Minority Women Owned Small Business of 18 years in the greater Southern California area, that specializes in Precision Manufacturing and Metrology. KCI’s founder, Gary Sjoberg, was one of the original early adopters of the Laser Tracker’s introduction into Precision Aerospace Mecca that is Los Angeles.
